heh. updating once a month. hm 3 weeks of holiday have already passed! i guess this is the most fulfilling holiday i ever had! (: going around hunting for jobs, working in new environments, knowing new friends and meeting kind people, cross-stitching new designs, planning for my tomorrow, inviting friends to my house to play, watching interesting dramas... :D
ahh baona, very sorry for not going out with you before you left for china. although im having fun back in spore here, im sort of missing my 407 classmates who're in china now! ): it feels like there's a part of my life missing. hah see how important you all are to me!
oh yea, today's the release of psle results, bpps's highest score is 279! YAY! that's a rather high score. my friends who took psle this year are faring quite well too, from what i heard. that's good! (:
i've been working as a part-time waitress in a jap restaurant, j-toshi, in M hotel. it's not the usual jap restaurants my family usually eat at, but a more high-class venue to enjoy japanese fare. you have a high price to pay to eat there, for i had a glance at the prices and found out that for set lunches, set A- $28, set B- $36, set C- $48 and for the dinner a la carte buffet, children's price- $28, adult's price- $48! WAHHH. jaw-dropping prices ahh. these prices are rough estimates from my memory la, wanna know the exact prices, visit the restaurant for a meal! :P however, 一分钱，一分货, the food's taste, presentation are really of top quality and freshness! not to forget, there's a good ambience, with GREAT SERVICE! (without me serving you X))
i pity the customers served by me, cos as a newbie and a blur queen, i cant really balance the tray with my palm and serve with the other. while im putting down a dish onto the table for the customer w my left hand, the rest of the dishes on the tray in my other hand will go sliding here and there, leaving my customer staring nervously at my right hand. very paiseh! if not, i'll put down the set lunch wrongly, with the rice away from the customer. >< worse still, i will drop the set lunch all of a sudden despite trying to place it gently onto the table because i accidentally touched the hot claypot and it was REALLY hot. its quite a tough job cos you have to stand throughout and carry and balance heavy trays, maintain a smile and attend to customers. but it was an enriching learning experience and there's a sense of satisfaction after serving batches after batches of customers. and seldom do i meet nasty customers, the customers are always very friendly and kind!
hm okay, working is a rather fun and enriching experience. hope that bsp ppl in china are also having fun! :D take care and miss ya'all.

hm successfully altered my tagboard! (: had some problems with the previous one.
yesterday was the sec 4's official last day of school in NY, i believe everyone tried savouring every moment the school spent together. IP classes viewed the "surprise", a montage of the sec4 class photos and teachers' messages, in NY's beautiful auditorium together for the last time, we had our last hug with everyone in the class, did spring cleaning together as a 407 class for the last time, ate at the canteen together as NY students for the last time, sat in the hall for performances prepared for Mdm Mak's farewell together as a school for the last time, sang the school song as loudly as we can for the first [X)] and last time, screamed our school cheer together with the councillors for the last time, taking a class photo in our classroom for the last time...
it is sometimes unbelievable, like how time can pass so fast without us knowing, and that we are now leaving NY when it seems like it was just yesterday when we first had our orientation ceremony as sec 1s. despite our frequent grumblings abt NY here and there, i feel that it is undeniable that the school has really done alot of us. the teachers, the deans, the staff, the cleaners, our dear juniors and seniors... who had always made the effort to make our stay in NY an enriching and memorable one. though i wasnt like siying who gave up buckets of her precious tears yesterday, i know that i will keep the wonderful moments and people i had and known in 4 years of NY as beautiful memories in some corner of my heart. (: it may be only when i've grown senile 50 years down the road then will i unwillingly let go of these secondary school recollections.
thankyou, to those who appeared and added joy to my life in NY in the past 4 years.
and for my 407 classmates, i believe that we'll still keep in close contact in HCI right? YEA MAN. :D
NY 2006 batch! GO GO GO!
